Song | The Devil (Okay) |
Artist | Marc Almond |
Album | Jacques |
作词 : Brel, Buck | |
One day the devil came above ground | |
One day the devil came above ground | |
To study his interests | |
He saw everything | |
The devil, he heard everything | |
And having seen all | |
Having heard all | |
He returned to his home below | |
And down below | |
They organised a grand feast | |
At the end of this feast | |
The devil rose to deliver his speach | |
This is the jist of what he said | |
Okay! | |
Okay | |
The world up there is like a sea | |
Of raging fires that spit and roar | |
Okay | |
And man has fought like crazy | |
With dangerous games of war | |
Okay | |
Trains are derailed | |
A crash | |
His boys filled with ideals | |
Place bombs on the tracks | |
Well that creates original death | |
That death creates without confession | |
Confessions without remission | |
Okay | |
Nothing is sold | |
But all is bought | |
Honour and sainthood | |
Okay | |
And states change secretly | |
Into anonymous societies | |
Okay hey hey | |
And the mighty extort their dollars | |
From countries that are poor | |
And europe also rips the scars | |
With it's post colonial gorge | |
That creates death from starvation | |
And starvation of nations | |
Okay | |
And man has seen so much of it | |
That his eyes have become grey | |
Okay, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey | |
And no songs seem to exist | |
Except when sung on stage | |
Okay | |
They dispense with hired thugs | |
And jack-ass poets get the elbow | |
But in the papers everywhere | |
Every shit has his photo | |
That creates evil in honest folk | |
And laughter in dishonest ones | |
Okay! okay! okay! okay! | |
Okay! okay! okay! okay! | |
Okay! | |
Okay! hahaha! | |
Okay! hahaha! | |
Okay |
